MIDDLEPORT — Randall Ray Mullins, 68, went peacefully home with the Lord on Sunday, September 16, 2018 at his residence in Middleport.
He was born in Gallipolis on November 10, 1949 to Audrey Wallace-Mullins and Mark E. Mullins of Mercerville, who both precede him in death. He is also preceded in death by two brothers: Ralph Eddie Mullins and Norval Dewey Mullins.
Randall is survived by his loving wife of 18 years Kathy McElhinny Mullins of Middlleport; a son Eric Mullins and his fiancé Amy Pearson of Ellamore, W.Va.; a daughter Amanda and Jason Halley of Mercerville; stepsons Jeff and Marlo Hood of Lacey, WA and Todd and Megan L. Hood of Middleport, OH. He is also survived by three brothers Howard and Nancy Mullins of Gallipolis, Lyndall and Barbara Mullins of West Jefferson, Kendall and Debbie Mullins of Gallipolis, and a brother-in-law Russ and Gayle McElhinny of Sarasota, Fla. Grandchildren Kara Mullins, Brandon Hood, Megan Marie Hood, Brigg Hood, Ava Hood, Willow Hood and Rileigh Ward and one great-grandchild Brinley McKinney and several nieces and nephews.
Randall graduated from Hannan Trace High School on 1967 and went on to receive an associate degree in Architectural Design. He used this degree to excel at his gift as a carpenter. Randall lived his life to the fullest excelling at many other trades as well including: custom woodworking, design, building inspector, gardening, cooking, canning, canvas painting, singing, songwriting and making sweet music with his brothers and friends with the Mullins Brothers Last Shot Band. As much as Randall loved all these things, he also loved God, his many friends and most of all his family. All who met him loved him and enjoyed his many talents. He will be deeply missed by all.
There will be no funeral services as it was Randall's wish to be cremated. Friends may join the family in a celebration of life on Saturday, September 22, 2018 from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Riverbend Arts Council and Masonic Temple, 290 North Second St, Middleport, OH. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you consider making a donation to The American Heart Association at: donatenow.heart.org or by calling 1-800-AHA-USA1.

Kathy I want to tell you how my heart hurts for you sending out many prayers! He was a sweet, kind and loving gentlemen! Of all the folks that I met in Southern Ohio with Jaye he always was one of my favorites! He just seem to have a way about him to make everyone feel comfortable and included. The night I heard him sing with Larry Elliot at your place in Sarasota I was awestruck! I sure did love him and you, and will cherish our Florida and Ohio times! Many prayers as you go through this next journey of your life!

As a classmate of Randall from the 5th through High School graduation at Hannan Trace I remember him as a person who loved life. I think of him often and remember the times we spent at school and on the Basketball team together. He will be missed. My condolences to the family but know that he made an impact on all those he met. Rest in peace.
